Certification Program Details

All certification exams are taken online with a live proctor, accommodating all locations and time zones. Online proctoring provides the same benefits of a physical test center while being more accessible to exam-takers. The live proctor verifies your identity, walks you through rules and procedures, and watches you take the exam. Learn more ways to prepare for an online proctored exam in our Knowledgebase.

Before you register for an exam, review the Exam-taker Handbook to learn the requirements and policies for taking exams. It is your responsibility to know and abide by our program rules to successfully enter your exam appointment, failure to do so may result in forfeiture of appointment fees.

HashiCorp has partnered with Credly to offer you a digital badge and downloadable certificate upon passing a certification exam. There is no fee for this service and acceptance is up to you. Digital badges can be used in email signatures or digital resumes, and on social media sites such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. Badges link back to a real-time verification feature that describes your qualifications.

All HashiCorp Certifications are valid for two years, and you will be eligible to renew your certification starting 18 months after you earned your certification. To recertify, you will need to pass an exam at the same level or higher for the certification you are looking to renew. There are several pathways to recertification available, and you can learn more on our Knowledge Base or by heading to each exam’s homepage.

HashiCorp publishes all earned badges to a publicly searchable directory on Credly. Here, you can filter and find people who hold HashiCorp Cloud Engineer certifications. Learn how to opt-out of this service in our Knowledgebase.
